I’m a Toronto design retailer. How do I get a listing in Designlines?
Please let us know about you! We send freelance writers out to visit stores and showrooms in the Toronto and surrounding area. They write descriptions of each location, taking into consideration various factors, including whether the store or showroom carries original contemporary and/or modern design for the home. If your store/showroom fits this description and you would like to be considered for possible inclusion, please email us. Keep in mind that we may not include your store/showroom for various reasons, including the simple problem of space limitations.
